When does Caitlin Clark play next? How to watch Mercury - Fever online and on TV | WNBA

The WNBA makes it return this week after stopping for almost a month because of the 2024 Olympic Games. Many of the league’s top players were involved in the women’s basketball competition in Paris, although Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark wasn’t one of them.

The 22-year-old was left off the Team USA roster by head coach Cheryl Reeve, who opted for experience over young talent. As a result, Clark hasn’t played since July 17, when her Indiana Fever lost 101-93 to the Dallas Wings.

That result ended a two-game winning streak and stopped some of the momentum Indiana had been building up. After losing 10 of their first 13 games of the season, the Fever has won eight of their last 13, which has seen them rise up into seventh place in the NWBA standings. Reason for some to believe they could go on to win the WNBA Playoffs at the end of the season.
